Illegal Sale of Stem Cell Case Lands Engineer to Federal Prison HOUSTON—Lawrence Stowe, 61, has been ordered to prison for his role in a conspiracy to introduce misbranded and unapproved new drugs into interstate commerce, announced United States Attorney Kenneth Magidson along with Tommy Hennesy, resident agent in charge of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-Office of Criminal Investigations. Stowe pleaded guilty September 7, 2012. Today, U.S. District Judge Gray Miller sentenced Lawrence Stowe, 61, a total sentence of 78 months in federal prison to be immediately followed by three years of supervised release. In handing down the sentence, Judge Miller emphasized that Stowe “…took advantage of people dying and offered them hope.” Restitution was also ordered in the amount of $419,358 to be paid jointly and severally with co-defendant Francisco Morales, 54, of Brownsville. Morales was previously sentenced to 60 months in prison. Stowe, of Moline, Illinois, admitted that beginning in January 2006, he utilized several businesses, Stowe BioTherapy Inc. and The Stowe Foundation to advertise and promote a medical treatment protocol for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, multiple sclerosis (MS), Parkinson’s, and other neurological diseases. This treatment protocol, which was named “Applied Biologics,” consisted of supplements, vaccines, patient specific transfer factors and ultimately stem cell therapy. Stowe falsely represented to patients that this treatment protocol had been reviewed by all levels of the FDA and was effective in the treatment of ALS, MS, and Parkinson’s. There is currently no cure for these diseases. At the hearing, testimony was presented by a sister of a victim in the scheme detailing how she cared for her brother in the last year of his life when he met Stowe and paid him $47,000 with the false hope of a cure. She said her brother did not have much cash, so the $47,000 was all his savings.

Excerpt from WTTW's May 2026 article 'Piping Plovers Are on the Nest, With a Major Couple Shake-Up' by Patty Wetli "'Illinois’ piping plovers are on the nest. Over the weekend, monitors with both Chicago Piping Plovers and Lake County Audubon Society reported eggs laid at Montrose Beach and the Waukegan shoreline, respectively. For the third year running, Imani and Sea Rocket are expectant parents at Montrose, but there’s been a twist in Waukegan. Perennial third-wheel Pippin is no longer an also-ran. His persistence has paid off and this bachelor is now a father-to-be, having wooed Blaze away from her previous partner, Pepper." https://news.wttw.com/2026/05/18/piping-plovers-are-nest-major-couple-shake

While Sposato, one of the City Council’s most conservative members, voted to advance Young’s nomination, he did so after referring to the commission as the “CCBSA,” using the profanity abbreviation BS to replace part of the police oversight board’s name and expressing hope that it would not operate for very much longer. Napolitano, a former Chicago police officer who represents a Far Northwest Side ward where many residents are city employees, said he agreed with a member of the public who told the committee that Young and Guzman had not been selected on “merit.” Napolitano did not detail why he believed Young, who is Black, and Guzman, who is Latina, were not qualified to serve on the commission, even though they were selected by a 22-member nominating committee, made up of one elected police district council member from each of Chicago’s 22 police districts, from among more than 50 applicants, and chosen by the mayor, officials said. After thanking both Young and Guzman for “stepping up” to serve Chicago, Napolitano called the commission “a farce,” “a sham,” “a pile of garbage” and a “waste of money.” “I’m looking forward, after the next election, to getting rid of this (commission) completely,” Napolitano said.

It feels rushed, and the strategic elements are poorly planned out. With a bit more time and thought, I think the lone developer may have achieved their aims. It was a good attempt, but better luck next time. I look forward to this developers next project, whenever that appears. Probably in about 25 years to life." 77 people found this review helpful 98 people found this review funny

When was the 19th Amendment adopted? More than 160 years after women cast their first votes on American soil, Congress approved the 19th Amendment on June 4, 1919. It didn’t become part of the Constitution, however, until it was ratified by the 36th state legislature — Tennessee — on August 18, 1920.
